Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend about a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality many podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired encompassing medical training with a stress on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are qualified to handle difficulties ranging from simple ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet usually encounter.
